Newbie Checking in....

Just wanted to drop in and say hello (didn't see a newbies forum) so I figured this was the next best one.

Just got a '70 GMC from a friend, that in all honesty is in need of some TLC. Paying him $650 for the truck with no motor (he's keeping the motor for another project). Overall plans for the truck for the next year is to make it a sound daily driver, then after that it will become the next project vehicle for me. Most likely with a frame off resto, and all kinds of upgrades. I have a 700R4 tranny that needs a rebuild to be ready for work, and am trying to source a TBI 350 for cheap from a local junkyard (carburators and I don't get along ).

Heres some pics for your viewing enjoyment.





The red Xtreme in the background of the first pic is mine as well. As soon as the '70 is up and running somewhat reliably it is getting a complete "redo" of sorts.....Going from a 2.2 4cyl 5spd 2wd setup to a Vortec 5.3/4L60E/AWD setup....should make for an interesting truck I think.

Also theres links in my sig for the gallery on both trucks.
